That is one of the most terrible things I have ever heard. I personally feel that the kid should be tried as an adult and not given any bail. How could you continue to drive when you heard a man screaming for his life? That is a very cold person and in my view he is not going to suddenly become an upstanding citizen. This kid is going to do other bad things if he is let go with a slap on the wrist.

Man I can't belive that not only did he try to steal, get caught, kill someone, but now he wants for it to be considered OK just b/c he's 16. WTF?!?

Things like this just tick me off about how anyone can sue for the lamest things... imagine how the gas station attendant's family is feeling right now. :(

omg I am so sorry I have no idea how I missed this post! I don't know why, but I never got the comment e-mailed to me. :(

But thank you so much, this was incredibly sweet of you to drop me a little note like this. You've actually brightened my whole day...
